Collaboration between Excillum, Bruker AXS, and Incoatec

Almost exactly two years have passed since Incoatec started cooperating with the company Excillum, Stockholm. Excillum develops and produces extreme-brightness microfocus X-ray sources for a wide variety of applications according to a unique
metal-jet-anode concept. As a result of this collaboration, extremely high X-ray intensities have been achieved with a combination of Excillum?s source and Incoatec?s Montel multilayer optics. The intensity observed was a multiple of intensity that can be obtained using the best state-of-the-art rotating anode generator with comparable multilayer optics.

Today we are happy to announce that this fruitful collaboration has led to a broader, exclusive collaboration between Excillum and Bruker AXS with the aim of developing and marketing Excillum's unique new metal‑jet X-ray source for X-ray diffraction applications.

The future of X-ray Diffractometry will be brilliant!
